To maintain the relationship of black beads to red beads, we need to know the ratio of black beads to red beads in the existing bracelet or the desired ratio. If the ratio is 1:1, for example, then you would need to use an equal number of black and red beads.

However, based on the information provided, it's not clear what the current or desired ratio is. If Jamie wants to maintain a specific ratio, you need to know that ratio.

For example, if the ratio is 2:1 (2 black beads for every 1 red bead), and you want to use 5 red beads, you would need 5×2=10 black beads to maintain the 2:1 ratio.

Without more information on the desired or existing ratio, it's not possible to determine whether using 5 red beads alone would maintain the relationship of black beads to red beads.
